Mounties in Alberta have charged two additional people in the fatal poisoning of a Chestermere, Alta., man in 2020, after charging another man with first-degree murder last year.
Sahil Grewal, 18, died in hospital on April 6, 2020, three days after consuming cough syrup laced with fentanyl.
Five years later, Alberta RCMP charged 24-year-old Mohit Sandhu with first-degree murder.
Sandhu was also charged with attempted murder, as police alleged the laced cough syrup was intended for another man, 25-year-old Jaskaran Sidhu, who did not receive or consume the poison.
Now two more men, 24-year-old Harmanjot Chumber of Edmonton and 33-year-old Dalvir Sidhu of Rockyview County, have been charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder.
The men are scheduled to appear separately in a Calgary court on Aug. 7 and Aug. 10.
